The US and Russia have begun peace talks on the Ukraine war - without Ukraine.
US and Russian officials are in Riyadh on Tuesday for the highest-level talks to date between the two former Cold War foes on ending the war. They are expected to discuss ways to end the three-year-old conflict in Ukraine and restore American-Russian relations. Their talks could pave the way for a summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin.
